Workshop on QCD at high density

Workshop on QCD at high density

The meeting is motivated by the confluence of several exciting issues. The
foremost among these is the coming Beam Energy Scan II at the RHIC in
Brookhaven. This narrows the scan to a region where there were earlier
indications of a possible critical point of QCD. The second development
is the study of light hyper-nuclei: their properties are of interest
not only in nuclear physics, but also to heavy-ion physics, where the
production of these hyper-nuclei are very important probes of the late
stage dynamics of the cooling fireball, and neutron stars, where transport
properties in the proto-neutron star and the structure of neutron stars
could be acted by these components. The third development is the study
of transport properties in strongly interacting matter, which has begun
to tie together vastly different kinds of physics. Other experiments which
will address similar issues are the CBM experiment in FAIR and the NICA
in JINR.

Local hospitality will be provided to about 25 students and post-docs. Email
to the conference address a copy of your journey tickets as soon as you can,
in order to ensure your room booking.

Some financial support will be available for travel within India for students and
post-docs. If you would like to apply for support, then please check the
"I require travel support" field while registering. Also ask your
guide or post-doc mentor to send an email to the conference address to support
your case. Requests will be considered only if both of these conditions are
satisfied.
